lyrics

Im 17 lyrics

Its rizz

Rizzle kicks rizle kicks

So to start from the start

Im a master of my art

An advance on my path with a heart full of passion

voice straight out the car
when come with hardest bars but I do it in an elegant fashion

yeah cause its hard to break through

gotta get runnin or it… like your mates do

when everybody in your .. under rates you

its cool cus I can make do cus I know that

I got bars about loosin perception

Your boobs an exception

Your girl loves my music

But its you whose confused why she’s pregnant
the .. is a skill but the fact still
that im fabulously british like jack wills

but I stick to my own style

so if your don’t know my profile then

mid 8

when I walk into college with my headphones on

and listening to music, I think well

you could be walking to college with your headphones on

and(pause) well I suppose you should just

chorus

pull out your ipod flick to the playlist

rizzle kick old yellow brick now play this

stick in favourites

in fact drop the tune on your speakers piss off your neighbours

im all about noise pollution[what]

6 o clock already get the booze in

only time you won’t hear me playing music

 is well pretty much when im snoozing

other than that im down for a laugh

the music’s on so allow me to dance

bun those bouncers stand with a staff

like Gandalf thinking i shall not pass

well I got my fake ID

 I might stop you and be back by 3

Unless I find a girl who’s on it

Then coming back by 9 is right be me

When im walking home with a drunken swagger

I still think about my music

I think well instead going into class I could be making a banger

 But hey im 17

Well rizzle what does that mean

Means that im never clean

When it comes down to music I won’t be seen

Im still 17

I’ll get to the club and do my ting

Cus of my fake ID

(pause)

just pull out your ipod what track i bet its

rizzle kick old yellow brick now check this

shove it in your best friends ear like
out all my music rizzle is the best-ist
i keep my dreams dropping like tetris
then maybe in a couple years time
i'll find my rhymes are getting me reputation
money i can get a lexus


im always down for the fun
go to a party bound to some
1 for all or all for 1 i dunno
well i won't stop til im done
hold on man forget about mornings
passing out ignoring the warning
i think a kinda trait is forming
im 17


ignore the teachers
won't pay attention
couldn't care less oh did i mention
im in a bad mood so regards to forgotten hand
a special chi is a form of prevention
now i got eyes like a panda
girl on my phone line don't understand ya
something bout girl dont know dont remind argh
but can't remember
 oh its samatha

development of music star:chris brown

Chris Brown is artist who has developed his style over the years from main stream RnB to more generic underground sounds such as hip hop dance widening his genre range.

When his debut single run it came out he was known as sweet boy with great talent as his early videos such as 'Yo' included interaction with the ladies and b boy dance moves. He established himself as performance based artist with his videos being recognised for the slick choreograhy.

 When chris brown began to develop his sound he started collaborating with artists such as Chris Brown and his inconic symbol became his swagger. He chose to wear varsity jackets and big trainers which werealways noticable and this would be expected to seen in his videos  such as 'Kiss Kiss'  and 'Wall to wall' this was before the more drastic developments and he was still recognised for his dance  ability.

After the scandal involving Rhianna Chris looked to re-invent himself as an artist and this meant changing his style. Although he had collaborated with rappers before he always chose to sing, when he released champion with chipmunk it was clear he had developed his new style. Covered in tatoos and wearing more hip hop clothes it seemed as though the sweet boy image had disappeared.

This underlined the transformation of his ocnography as he is still recognised for his amazing dance moves, like michael Jackson he seems to have re-invented himself and his style with every album but still has his trademark motifs.

video analysis

 This music video is an example of creating the illusion of many locations simply by adding and removing props to follow the lyrical narrative without taking away focus. The video features the main and supporting artist snoop dogg and pharrell williams and a number of "hip hop honeys" which is only to expected as the genre is rap.

This shot shows a close up of snoop but you cannot see his eyes so this draws focus onto him and you can see the rings on his hang which purposely shows his money and swagger . This adds to his mystique as the non-diagetic sound of the slow track perfectly fits the concept of him being a gangster.

 the second shot i have selected shows him doing the crip walk which is also associated with the hip hop scene. his slow dance is accompanied by the intro of the first lyrics which is simply a vowel sound. This shot almost announces his introduction to the track as we get more of a favour of the artist .

in this clip snoop is accompanied by the traditional sexualised women in very little clothing as the chorus kicks in. his slow movement is mirrored  by the background dancers to reflect the lyrics which are "park it like its hot" while they all do a slow wheel movement. This shows the coolness of the video and track as the slow beat and lyric speed is not over shot by excessive dance moves or flashy effects.

By this shot we have introduced to Pharrell and a number of expensive objects and we see the Bentley  which perfectly fits in with the mise-en-scene of the genre as we see rapper accompanied by attractive women and grand objects and showing little interest in either as he lays down his lyrics and plays it cool. This medium shots allows the focus to be split between the artist and the car to engage the target audience.

 This extreme close up of money further plays to the stereotype of hip hop videos as we have now been given the ingredients of cars girls and money. This simplicity of this extreme of close up of money being dropped on the table suggests possible illegal activity and the song itself refers to how behave if ever caught by the police in a suspicious situation.


This is clearly a concept video as there is no straight line narrative in either the audio or visual timeline and we see only the artists and a number of different items such as cars money and women which brings to the conclusion that the concept of the video is the stereotypical life of a gangster.

student video

the use of framework in this video is very effective as the editing is not simply thrown for the sake of it but blends the different clips together for maximum efficiency.Although it is a music video this work seems to show a good variation between quick cutting and continuity which is often scene in films, however the contuinity serves a purpose in this video as during the start when the girl is putting on her necklace the transition from medium to close up is seamless. The fast editing allows us to see the different artists which flows without it seeming to jumpy which makes the cuts successful.
